but for the left the defensive crouch at least makes sense. liberalism's main purpose today is to defend itself past gains -- its past gains from conservative reform. but megativity on the right, to my mind, makes no sense at all. the left has created this false narrative that liberals are for things, and conservatives are against things. when we concede this narrative even just implicitly, we concede the debate before that debate even begins. and yet too many of us, elected conservatives especially, do it anyway. we take the bait. a liberal proposes an idea, we explain why it won't work, and we think that we've won the debate at that moment. but even if we do, we reinforce that false narrative that i'm talking about. winning battles while we're losing the war at every step. this must be frustrating to the scholars of the heritage foundation who work every day producing new ideas, ideas about what conservatives can be for. but it should be even more frustrating to the conservatives around the country that we, as elected conservatives, were in

and does it want to let the defense department get into the drone business, if you will? it goes back to 9/11. after 9/11, the united states was attacked and needed a response. and we saw the cia becoming less of an intelligence agency and more of a paramilitary agency involving drones, involving missions to go out and find people and kill people. that has functioned for about the last ten years. will we see now a shift? going back to the cia, taking its traditional role of gathering intelligence, working with foreign intelligence agencies and shifting the lethal operations back to the military which is much more comfortable about talking about these things, where there are already established lines of oversight. >> pick up on that point a little bit. as you know, we have a new director of the cia, john brennan who in the past has advocated for that move from the cia to the d.o.d. do you think he still sees that as a valuable move now that he is the one in charge of the cia? >> well, it is an interesting question. he was in some ways the driving force behind this idea. i
